We may have fewer players now, but they're better players.

Any thoughts about tomorrows ?


Instead of taking bets on how low the population is going to go, why not put forth some real ideas to help fix it?

tl;dr let's try positive thinking instead of negative thinking

a few Error 37s should do the trick.

But you basement dwellers would not understand that.


no MMO is a summer game unless this game is your social life

Well, summer needs to be nerfed, then the players wouldn´t be outside so much.
Well, i prefer things as they are now, though, weather will be ****** again soon enough.

I got lost in thought... it was unfamiliar territory.

It is true we are going through a dip in online numbers right now. It is also true that this has happened for the last 2 years at least so it is not something to worry about.

I will just toss out there that Monday is Memorial Day for folks in the US. Consequently, a number of people take the opportunity of a long weekend to get out of town or burn some vacation in the following week.

This will likely depress numbers artificially for mostly this weekend, but also a bit for next weekend as well.

I fear we wont have a really good general idea on the impact until about 10 June. Anything prior to that is somewhat suspect due to holiday impact.

Also some people may have "quit in protest" and started drifting back to the game over the next few weeks.

Really? so the seasons and outdoor weather now manage to make it to inside the basement?
